June 29, 2012: Who's My Guide This Summer Vacation? Conan!

As we mentioned a few days ago, we at SJ Games will be taking our summer break soon. That leaves me with a week to relax, unwind, and search for adventure. And who better to help out with this last one than Conan of Cimmeria?

Of course, that assumes my hero will survive each step of the way . . . but if Conan could survive encounters with the Snow Devil, the Zarkheba River ruins, barbarian Picts, and the powerful shaman Zogar Sag, my guy has a shot, right? Maybe?
